Abstract

The data for 445 patients admitted to all the general hospitals in Israel during a 4-year period in whom a definite diagnosis of biliary system cancer was made were studied. The findings confirm those of previous reports and indicate that the pattern of the disease in the community is similar to that in selected hospital material.
